I think the attention google gives to people is really necessary. I, for example, didnt know that fact and i didnt know who Dennis Gabor was before i clicked on the logo to see what Google's new image was… Thumbs up Google!

Keep up the GREAT work Google, I like to follow your doogle links.

When I turn on my computer, I always wonder what google will teach me today. Now I know who invented holography, which will surely come in handy in a quizz game some day…

I have studied Dennis Gabor's work and to be honest I think it is fantastic that google are making is work known to the world because im sure many have never heard of him. Great work Google team it looks great!

Excellent Google can expose this relatively unknown but important inventor to a truly wider audience. Keep it up Google!

Thanks Google for that. I had never heard of Dennis Gaabor before. Its true, you learn something new each day!

Less is more, what a greaty image, I never look into these images, but this one had me intrigued

Its definitly good that google makes these people recognised, its people like this that we have to thank for our lifestyles today or atleast in times still to come as holography is still being perfected and is likely to become more widely used in the future.

I'd like to say, it's because of selfless pioneers like Dennis Gabor, that we have benefited from new discoveries that have increased our knowledge of Science.

I like the very informative logos we get from Google. As my grandmother used to say, "You turn as old as a house and never finish learning." ("Du wirst alt wie ein Haus und lernst nie aus.")

Thank you, Google, for honoring the people who actually made a significant contribution to technology. The way we live our lives today rest on the shoulders of relatively so few, thanks for bringing them into the spotlight.

Ignorant as I am, I was surprised holography came about such a long time ago. Thanks, Dennis.

I'm a professional holographer since 1980 and really appreciate Google's shining some light on Gabor's work. Holography is one of those techniques that works "behind the scenes" in research, industry and design that usually gets no credit or even acknowledgement. Understand holography and you'll understand perspective, interconnectivity, coherence, interference and dimension.
